Francis Ngannou, the formidable Cameroonian boxer nicknamed “The Predator,” recently made surprising revelations about his fight against Anthony Joshua. During a debriefing session, Ngannou admitted that he was not at 100% during the confrontation due to a strange urge to sleep that was overwhelming him.

This testimony contrasts with the usual image of Ngannou, known for his power and determination in the ring. He explained that even the training sessions he had done a few hours before the fight had not been able to fully prepare him. Tired and overcome by sleepiness, Ngannou experienced an unusual experience that influenced his performance. “I was never in that fight… I remember, I was warming up. I was sweating but I was sleepy. It was a bit strange,” he explained.

However, despite these unfavorable circumstances, Ngannou was keen to emphasize that he was not trying to make excuses for his defeat against Joshua. On the contrary, he promised to redouble his efforts and get back to work to better face the challenges that lie ahead in his boxing career.

Just a few hours after his fight, which ended in a knockout victory for the British boxer, several people and personalities were already claiming that the Cameroonian boxer had been drugged before the fight. Francis Ngannou was not the fearsome fighter that he was often known to be in the arena in other fights. This remark raises questions after this debriefing in which the famous footballer Cristiano Ronaldo participated in the commentary.

After these statements, Francis Ngannou’s fans can expect to see him return stronger than ever to the ring, ready to take on new challenges and demonstrate the full extent of his talent.
